For those not behind brandon wholeheartedly, let me explain from a networking perspective, .XXX would mean the end of adult internet as we know it. A few would ultimately prosper, but ultimately about 90 percent of those in adult webmastering would become unemployed. The easiest thing in the world would be to block the whole domain. Perhaps you have seen how politicians go after strip bars in an election year, can you imagine how they would go after .xxx? Then they would force isp's to block the entire domain. one by one, they would fall until maybe new york california and nevada remained as the only place you could view the adult internet. Silly? perhaps but not implausible. The truth is that someone already owns almost every good .xxx domain, so if you think well i will be able to get my domain in .xxx think again. This is the absolute worst thing that can happen to your adult webmastering money. All of us will suffer in the long term.

thanks brandon for keeping us abreast of the situation
